Historical Context & Value
  • Design History: This specific "Rowing" obverse design by Pinches was historically significant, having been used for the 1972 British National Rowing Championships held at Holme Pierrepont. While those specific award versions often had "National Rowing Championships 1972" on the reverse, this version is an un-engraved award strike from the same era.
